17. I campaigned for Remain

It was during the referendum that I became disillusioned with Corbyn, and he's only got worse since then.

I strongly suspect he was always a leaver, who felt that the EU was just a big capitalist conspiracy and after he won the 2nd leadership contest felt free to impose his will on the rest of the party regardless of what the wider party think. If anything it's becoming increasingly apparent that Corbyn fanboys regard us remainers as being little more than closet Blairites.

It's irksome in the extreme to see Corbynites, who accuse everyone else inside and outside of Labour of being Tory enablers going all out to enable the most damaging policy of the Conservatives. Labour policy on the EU is at best extremely befuddled and just as delusional as the tripe you hear from the likes of Jacob Rees Mogg.
